p.kramer.11 299

Court proceedings on the petition of Demetria daughter of Polydeukes over her father's estate. Fragment of court proceedings from AD 299, probably from Antinoopolis, in which an advocate speaks for Demetria, daughter of Polydeukes, a former gymnasiarch. After her father's death, opponents apparently took the best parts of the estate, and she asks the official not to refer the case to new judges but to set a deadline for her opponents to appear and to give a ruling in her favour. machine translation

About this record's data
  • From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
  • AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
  • Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
  • Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
  • Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
